@licho @sounddrill @jalefkowit Lots and lots of people share this opinion, it's mainstream. Having said that, I'm not going to try to convince you, you already have everything you need to understand the opposite opinion.

@licho @sounddrill @jalefkowit The notion that we are supposed to keep friends with people who have awful wiews is very bothering to me. When their wievs become too awful to tolerate? What do they need to do in order for us to say "enough"? How can I keep friends with someone who hurts me or my friends? Or even strangers? I had a friend once, he used to be very conservative politically and we quarreled about that a lot. At some point he decided to join an anti-refugee march in my hometown. At the same time, he kept friendly relationship with another friend's boyfriend, who happened to be a refugee. Is this enough? He was nice to this guy, so maybe the nazi march was just something I should glance over? I had another friend, a very close friend. Las Spring she went for a volunteering gig to Israel, to help some farmer pick strawberries, because his three sons were in the army. So, what to do? Are these views awful enough to say goodbye? Or should I disregard the fact that she went to help some guy, because people who should have helped him, were away, killing innocent babies? And should I keep close to my uncle, who's homophobic and transphobic, but he cried happy tears when he saw me after many years in another country? He's after all my closest relative on the side of my deceased father. And he loves me, clearly he loves me so much, the only thing I need to do is pretend that he's just a guy, just my uncle, who never does anyone any harm, but taught his two sons to hate LGBT+ people? Sorry for the rant, but see - these are just normal people. They never harmed anybody, they're nice and all. And yet...

@Lana@beige.party Thank you. And I'm not even religious.

@srebrna@circumstances.run whatever works <3

@mad_amoebe@chaos.social a jednak to, co do człowieka dociera ma moc zmieniania spojrzenia na świat. Tu jest łatwiej widzieć to, czego chcę doświadczać.

@blotosmetek@circumstances.run no i?

@blotosmetek@circumstances.run no ale co ja mam z tym zrobić?
